There’s hope that fencing will keep a couple of pests away from Kalavista Lagoon in Coldstream.

Council has approved installation of a fence to keep out the carp because “they stir up the water and the water quality goes down because of that,” says Mayor Jim Garlick.

Garlick says Coldstream will also supply a letter of support for the Society for the Protection of Kalamalka Lake (SPrKl) which is seeking funding from the Okanagan Basin Water Board for another fence to keep geese off property around the lagoon.
